Okay, I dont know about anybody here, but if I went to some guys house (who I just met) and he has drawings of me all over his apartment, I'd be freaking out! And you better believe I'd be outta there as fast as I could! It was crazy how Eunha walks into the guys apartment, and right there is a picture of her.
Anyways in the first episode where we see Andrea as a little boy, we think that his parents are dead. But later on in that episode we realize that his mother is alive. Now we know that he has a brother, and his dad is alive as well. So this is what I got so far (anybody feel free to correct me) Andrea's parents were married, the dad was probably cheating on her and abandoned the mom to marry someone else. BUT the dad kept one of the brothers and the mom took Andrea and abandoned him. I wonder why the dad hasn't looked for Andrea or wondered where he is. And are Andrea and his brother suppose to be fraternal twins? I mean, they are exactly the same age. I guess we'll find out in the coming episodes.
Oh and I don't think Ji Jin Hee looks as cute here as he did in JangGeum. Andrea looks way better to me, he is just so cute and adorable ;D

Yeah, I pretty much agree with your theory. It sounds pretty correct. Except I don't think that Andrea's mother wanted to keep him while the father took the other son. I just think that she was forced to give him up due to a lack of financial stability.
ps: i first wasn't too fond of ji jin-hui when i saw him because of his appearence on this show. I liked him much better in dae jang-geum and was surprised that he was woo-jin from LL.

Um, I think that Andrea's dad died, his mom remarried a man and abandoned her son (in what order I'm not sure). My theory is that her new husband already had a son (Jung Woojin) who happens to be very close in age and coincidentally had the same given name as her own abandoned son. Remember, she is the stepmom of Jung Woojin, not his natural mother, and she is Andrea's natural mother. That's how I interpreted it, anway ;-)
Cheers!

I remember him talking to Andrea and telling him that he grew up thinking his stepmom was his real mother then his real mother came back (Andrea's mom) I think

If I remember correctly they are supposed to be step brothers. I'm not too sure though. I will tape a look at my tape for ep. 2 and look at the old board.
I remember thinking that Ji Jin Hee's hair was too long for that spiky haircut. He needs to have his hair shorter if he is going to spike it up.
I did think rich Woojin was cute in this one, but I must admit that I am drawn to Andrea because the boy just suffered so much but he is still so nice to Eunha and has so much love to give to her and he is just plain fine.
Ohh! I just remembered, remember in episode one where Eunha is saying that everybody in her life left her and she was sad because Andrea told her he was disappointed in her for slapping that other girl and he told her, "I promise to be your mother, your father and your friend. I will never leave you." OMG I just melted.

I'm so confused I taped episode 2 and I even had to rewind the part where Woojin is explaining his family issues to Andrea, and I seriously thought they were real brothers. Ohh! I just remembered, remember in episode one where Eunha is saying that everybody in her life left her and she was sad because Andrea told her he was disappointed in her for slapping that other girl and he told her, "I promise to be your mother, your father and your friend. I will never leave you." OMG I just melted. That was so cute. I really thought he was falling in love with her too, especially when he said that. Who knew he wanted to be a priest.

Isn't Andrea's real mom married to Dr. Jung? I'd be interested in how others thought about it. Maybe the writers were purposely being confusing and ambiguous? I don't tape the shows, so I can't go back and review ...

;D for what i understand woojin and Andrea are not related. Andrea mom raised woojin when woojin's dad made his first wife give him up and Andrea mom raised him with the professor which is his dad. He also said that he hated his parents for lying to him but it confused me to see him so happy when the mom came to see him and when he talked to her on the phone. Maybe he was just hurt and forgave her, After all she did race him and is the only mother he knows.

This part of your post got ignored, but I wanted to respond to it. Yes, that is so creepy! I mean, we, the audience, kind of understand where the obsession comes from, but she had no idea so in similar circumstances I would find it very disturbing! I, too, would have left as quickly as possible.

I got a chance to see my tape of ep. 2 yesterday and Raven explains it perfectly.
It's cute how Eunha doesn't like rich Woojin because he's taking Andrea away from her. She was kinda mean though, when he invited her and Andrea to his birthday dinner she's all like "We don't have time to waste like you."
Definitely creepy when we see that his whole studio is filled w/drawings of her. I would have swung right back out that door as soon as I saw the first huge drawing.
Oh and how sad was it when Eunha kept waiting and waiting and waiting for Andrea to come back and he ended up drinking his first cup of soju w/Woojin.

I got a chance to see my tape of ep. 2 yesterday and Raven explains it perfectly. Okay this is what I don't understand, if Andrea's mom raised "rich" woojin, wouldn't he have known Eunha? I thought Andrea's mom took care of Eunha for a while? I hope they explain more in today's episode. It was so sad that Eunha was waiting and waiting for Andrea, even re-heating the food, even served him his first cup of Soju. Honestly I would've been so pist Especially cause he was suppose to have his "first" drink with her. But thats just me. Anyways has anybody here had Soju? Is it good? I keep seeing it in these dramas. I going to have to go to a Korean restaurant and try it. I know of a Korean restaurant on the Northside that is opened 24 HOURS!!!!!!!!!!! I left the address at home, so I will post it on here tomorrow. I saw it advertised on this show on channel 11 called Check Please where they rate restaurants.

Eunha wasn't w/the doctor for a long time, she was taken to the orphanage shortly after the death of her parents. Also, remember that Woojin wasn't living with his parents, he was living at that studio apartment of his.
I've tried soju and it is delicious. It goes down nice and smooth. It has an almost sweet taste to it. I finished the bottle I bought but hope to make my way back up there again soon to re-stock.

Oh, my, I have had much, much soju. I always try to keep a bottle or two in the fridge. (They are small.) They sell the same brand at Chicago Food on Kimball that you usually see on the dramas--Saan Soju. GC is right, it's nice and smooth. It looks like vodka but has less alcohol. More than wine but less than our hard liquor. And it is sort of sweet but not in a sugary way. I think that's because it's made from sweet potatoes. It's great to have a little tot of soju handy while you're watching a drama. Alexa, I think I know which restaurant you mean. Its name is made up of four little words, right? Something like San Soo Gab San . . . I know that's probably nonsense, but I think it's close.
